ACK, these will be renamed as per the schematic. Since these are direct supplies
on hardware, used fixed-regulator configuration.

As per the previous review, it was suggested to use an existing table. But yes,
this is specific to the Host controller and the corresponding voltage corners on
the chip and can be defined as a separate entity for SD card use-case.
